Abstract :
A hardware software cosimulation environment is developed using the backplane approach. This paper defines the backplane protocol for communication and synchronization between client simulators to seamlessly integrate a new simulator without modification. Automatic interface generation facility is also devised for more effective cosimulation environment. The environment is implemented based on Ptolemy and validated with QAM example run on different configurations
